<strong>The</strong> <strong>Story</strong> <strong>Of</strong> <strong>Swami</strong> <strong>Rama</strong><br />

literary grace, it may be said, is not the result of<br />

assiduous cultivation but the natural and<br />

spontaneous expression of a noble and thoughtful<br />

personality. Added to their literary grace there is a<br />

piquant directness of style which comes of the very<br />

fullness of thought finding sudden vent. In the<br />

speed of expression, pouring forth a wealth of<br />

illustration and argument, there is little time to<br />

prune and reshape the matter. And it is better so<br />

for what may be lost in external polish is more than<br />

regained in force and vigour of style.<br />

<strong>The</strong> following letters were written to Mrs.<br />

Wellman.<br />

MOST BLESSED DIVINE MOTHER,<br />

OM<br />

Shasta Springs, California,<br />

8th October, 1903.<br />

…<strong>Rama</strong> thoroughly appreciates every movement<br />

of yours. <strong>Rama</strong> is not selfish enough to<br />

misunderstand, nor is there any likelihood of <strong>Rama</strong><br />

ever forgetting one who has become <strong>Rama</strong> in her<br />

love for India, Truth and suffering Humanity.<br />
